A Willow Not Weeping

I dance above sunlit seeds, rustling inside the wind, freefalling into rows of garnet and amber- seeking sights of warmth and comfort, I seize the moment when I fear nothing but the eventide ascending too soon. I skip outside lingering fields of emerald grass; its roots nourish my appetite and I glow in grace. I serenade with ease as the Summer spends her time with me- revealing all her secrets, as if she was always mine. For I am but a willow not weeping; my bark embraces my branches and I am forever in love with Mother Nature and all her daily fruits. The Lord bestows His mercy onto me- as I rustle inside the wind... dancing above starlit seeds. August 10, 2018
